ABSTRACT
The approach described in this paper was developed to support the design of the Intercity Express Programme (IEP) Driver’s Cab (see Figure 1). As described in Jenkins et al. (in press), the project involves the design and manufacture of 122 new trains for the UK’s East Coast and Great Western mainlines, increasing capacity and reducing journey times. The first trains are planned to go into service in 2017. While the project involved the design of all the interior areas of the train, the scope of this paper has been limited to the design of the cab.
